Kellen Lopez, of Long Beach, Calif., dries an overflowing glass of beer before serving it to a customer Thursday, May 5, 2016, at Hangar 9 in Carbondale. Lopez has worked at Hangar 9 for two years and said he enjoys the diversity in Carbondale’s beer culture with respect to types of beer and the age-groups of drinkers. “I enjoy gaining experience from the older generation about why they enjoy the craft expansion of beer as opposed to just drinking your regular Bud Light, Busch Light,” Lopez said. “Right now my favorite beer is the Founders Mosaic Promise. Founders Mosaic Promise is a single hop beer and it’s delicious.” Hangar 9 is hosting the CarbondALE Brew Fest afterparty Friday night and granting free entry to all Brew Fest attendees.
